#192 Grief, heartbreak and joy with Danette Relic

I’m so happy to bring you a new interview episode in amongst all these recent solo grief journals. My wonderful guest is Danette Relic, who was also on episodes 116 and 48 (back in 2018, the before times!). Danette is sadly a fellow griever who also lost a parent this year, so in this episode we’re chatting about keeping our magic safe, what we learned from past heartbreaks and how we see the value of feeling all the feelings. There is, in short, a whole lot of permission in here, plus a very exciting giveaway for Danette’s book Crash Bloom (which will be such a great winter companion/Christmas gift).

Danette Relic is an author, artist and coach, married to herself since 2001. From a young age, Danette was inspired by reading, drawing, using her imagination, and falling in love.  She is a self-projected Projector in Human Design, a Sagittarius Sun, Libra Rising with a Gemini Moon who takes her pleasure seriously. Her passion for self discovery, relationships and creativity shapes her work and her life in every way.

You can hear her explore these themes on her podcast, The Soft Shoulder. You can receive Letters from Danette via her newsletter by signing up on her website, Radical Creative Sanctuary dot com. Her first book, Crash Bloom: a creative guide for growing through your breakup was released this year and is available wherever you most love to buy books

Hi, I’m Yarrow

I’m a maker, grief companion and tarot reader living on the East coast of Scotland. 

I facilitate creative projects and gentle rituals for seasons of loss, make handmade textile magic and host the Grief Glimmers podcast. My wish is to change the culture around grief and death so that we can explore these experiences as gateways into a softer, more embodied life.
